• Survey

  • CIECA sent a message out to the Industry to determine what CIECA implementations (EMS/BMS) were being adopted and to determine if there were any concerns or pain points.

  • The Results from the survey identified

    • Data needed that does not exist in the BMS

    • Using an implementation that is not EMS or XML

    • Trading Partners do not use XML

    • EMS was already implemented

    • BMS schema is very large it could be overwhelming to implement for new BMS developers 

    • Tools to implement and Support would help

    • Provide excellent documentation and code samples for various languages

  • Documentation and Code Samples Problem Point

    • Reviewed the current process of looking up Implementation Guides and Appendix C via Committee on CIECA.com.

    • Demo the new website Standards design that goes by the Products (Assignment, Procurement, FNOL, etc..)

    • The committee agreed the Standards by Products was easier to find and followed the new API structure.

    • Recommendation to reach out to the individuals that were concerned about the standards and go over this concept and see if it helps.

      • CONNEX is next week and the new website design will be previewed in that meeting.

      • After CONNEX we hope to rollout the new Website in October.

• Brainstorm Session

  • What messages do you use?

    • Repair Order

    • Estimate

  • What are pain points in implementing messages with Trading Partners

    • Schemas are good

    • Most Customers can support XML even if they are using JSON, so that has not been a problem or a push to move to JSON.

    • Customers do complain about signing up and becoming CIECA Members.

    • Documentation is good

    • Need International Phone Number.

  • Any new messages that would make your business workflow better

    • Moving to JSON is the right direction.

• Committee Direction

  • New Web Page and Implementation Guides approval

  • New Committee Objectives

    • Work with the VDI Committee on the OEM Repair Procedure and Build Sheet Data

    • Homework for everyone to reach out to your technical team and find out what pain points they have and what they would like to see CIECA provide in Data standards.

• Meeting Occurrences

  • We will start Monthly meetings in October.

Great Kickoff Meeting!
